Chapter 83 Urgent Information
Changhu Town.
No matter what happens outside, people here always believe that living their current life well is the most important. Life is already difficult and poor enough, and no matter how big things happen outside, it can't make gold flow out of the river.
The lakes and active rivers surrounding the town are not only a source of food for the residents of the town, but also a barrier to protect them. By cutting off the bridges leading to the land, most enemies can be prevented from invading.
But this method obviously can't stop Oak, at least that's what Bard thinks.
"Bain, pack your things at home, take your sister and leave here, go north, far away, to find the dwarves there."
"What happened, father, why did you leave suddenly?"
Ba Yin opened his eyes wide and felt a little at a loss.
Bader immediately leaned over, pressed his shoulder and said seriously: "Listen, Bain, there is an army of Oaks approaching here. They will bring killing and death. You must not stay here."
"What about you?"
"I went to evacuate the townspeople. They had no idea of the impending disaster and needed someone to warn them."
Bayin opened his mouth to say something, but under his father's stern gaze, he closed his mouth and honestly maintained the safety of the family.
"By the way, I remember that two elves came to my house. Where did they go?"
"They are near Changhu Town and have not left."
The lakeside bridge.
Looking at this town that often had trade relations with the forest, Legolas frowned, always having a bad feeling.
"I always feel a shadow approaching, Tauriel."
"Maybe it's just an illusion."
Unlike Legolas, Tauriel always looked towards the north. She touched the small object in her hand and slowly said:
"They have been gone for a long time. If something happened, there should have been news by now. Maybe their operation has been successfully completed."
The two of them seemed to be talking about the same thing, but they seemed not to be talking about the same thing.
"Lord Legolas!"
Just as he was talking, an elf came on horseback from a distance. The voice arrived before the person arrived. He stopped in front of the two of them and said to Legolas:
"Your Majesty, please go back."
"What about Tauriel?"
"She has been banished."
"Tell my father that if Tauriel has nowhere to go, then neither can I."
Hearing this, the elf who came to deliver the news shook his head helplessly.
He couldn't force Legolas to do anything, it was his entire responsibility and all he could do to convey the message.
"Let's go, Tauriel."
"Where to go?"
"To Gundabad."
"Why go there?"
Legolas borrowed the messenger elf's horse and said to Tauriel: "That's the place where my mother died in battle. I have never been there, and my father also kept silent about it."
"I want to see it."
Tauriel didn't know what to say for a moment. This was the king's secret and she was not qualified to comment.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Almost as soon as Legolas and Tauriel left on horseback, an old man in gray robes came running over on horseback. When he saw an elf standing helplessly by the bridge, he immediately got off the horse. horse.
"Greetings to you, Gray Wanderer." The elf greeted politely.
"Elf of the Woodland Kingdom, why are you here?"
Gandalf felt something strange.
"I'm here to ask Lord Legolas to return."
"Legolas? Oh, I know him. That prince has a bad temper. I guess this matter won't go well."
"Yes, he rode my horse to Gundabad."
“Gundabad?!”
Gandalf's face became serious: "What is he doing there when he has nothing to do!"
"Stupid, the current situation cannot tolerate his willfulness!"
Whoosh——
When Gandalf frowned, he suddenly heard a familiar sound coming from the sky, just like the fireworks he set off in the Shire last year, but there was only the sound of launching and no explosion.
He raised his head and saw a figure gliding and circling in the sky. After a moment, he seemed to notice the old man in gray robe on the ground. He changed direction and dived downwards, diving into the water next to him.
"Gandalf, why are you here?"
Levi swam ashore, folded his elytra and asked, nodding hello to the elf next to him.
"This is what I also want to ask you. How is the situation over there?"
Seeing Levi appear, Gandalf felt a little relieved inexplicably, and his brows relaxed a lot.
"The evil dragon is dead. It was killed by Bard and I together. Oh, you may not know Bard. He is a descendant of Lord Girion of Riverdale City. He was a big help. He used black arrows to severely damage the evil dragon. I can easily kill him."
"I see, that's really amazing."
Gandalf thought for a while and said: "In this case, things may become a little easier. We can let the people of Long Lake Town take refuge in Erebor. The walls there may not be able to resist the dragon, but for the Oaks, It’s pretty solid.”
"Thorin must have retrieved the Arkenstone by this time. As long as we can hold on until reinforcements arrive, we have a chance to defend this place."
"I think so too." Levi agreed.
Listening to the conversation between the two, the expression of the woodland elf next to him gradually became serious, and he immediately said:
"Gandalf, could you lend me your horse?"
"Oh, if you need it, just take it first. I have arrived at my destination and I no longer need it for transportation."
"Thanks."
The elf left quickly, presumably having a lot to say to the king.
"I have to go to the town and see. People here don't know what's going to happen."
Gandalf was in a hurry to bring the wizard's warning to the town.
"What about you, Levi, what brings you here, maybe I can help?"
"I have the same purpose as you. In fact, someone has arrived before me. It's the Bard I mentioned. I'm not too worried about him, so I want to come and see. But since you're already here, there's no need. Me."
Levi put on his elytra again and took out the fireworks, eager to take off on the ground.
"Where are you going?"
"Do what I'm better at - building walls, and maybe some traps."
Whoosh——
As a firework ignited, the elytra opened instantly, pushing Levi into the sky against common sense, and began to glide in the direction of the lonely mountain.
"What new technology is this?"
Gandalf clicked his tongue when he saw it, but he soon focused on what he had to do.
But before him, someone had already gathered the residents in the center of the town.
"Townshipers, listen to me!"
Bard shouted: "There is an army of Oaks heading here. It will arrive in a few days at the latest. We cannot stop them and must start evacuating immediately!"
Wow——
The crowd suddenly exploded, discussing what Bud said. People were panicked for a while. Although there was no concrete evidence, some people were already planning to go home and pack their things out of trust in Bud.
"But where should we go?"
"Go to Lonely Mountain. The king under the mountain has promised to protect us."
"rumor!"
Just when things seemed to be going smoothly, suddenly a mean figure squeezed out from the crowd, covered his red and swollen left eye socket, pointed at Bud standing high up and shouted:
"You thief, a thief who escaped from prison, the first thing you do when you come out is spread rumors in an attempt to shake the lives of the townspeople!"
"Alfred, everything I said is true!"
"Okay, okay, even if what our People's Fighter said is true, then why go to the lonely mountain where the fire dragon is entrenched? Do you want to send the people of Changhu Town to serve as snacks for the evil dragon?"
"In my opinion, you, a guy with evil intentions, have been bewitched by the evil dragon for a long time. You came back this time just to harm our people. I will arrest you again right now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two guards in armor came forward from behind, pretending to recapture Bard.
"What he said is true."
At the critical moment, an old man in a gray robe came, squeezed past the guards, stood in the middle and said loudly to the crowd:
"Don't worry about the evil dragon. Everyone, that dragon has been killed by the marksman Bard and the legend of the wilderness Levi. Erebor is safe!"
"oh--!"
There was no doubt about the wizard's news, and the crowd immediately cheered and supported Bard.
"Dragon-slaying hero!"
They shouted and spread the news everywhere.
Bud felt helpless for a moment. He pressed his hands to let people be quiet first.
"Enough!"
But before Bud could say anything, Alfred got angry first.
Seeing that the situation was in danger of getting out of control, he immediately pointed at Gandalf and cursed:
"You, a broken beggar from the wilderness, an old tramp, who do you think the rumors you brought can convince you? Let me tell you, the people of Changhu Town will not leave here! You -"
Boom!
Caught off guard, Gandalf raised his cane and gave this weird guy a hard blow. Alfred rolled his eyes and fainted on the spot.
That blow also happened to hit his other uninjured eye, helping him to apply panda makeup.
"I hate it when people call me a beggar."
